R32.3.1 tx2-4g nvoverlaysink image does not show up on the HDMI only on my mipi DSI screen

As you know that nvoverlaysink bypasses X, you would understand that mirroring with X would not help.

X mirroring mirrors the X display, but nvoverlaysink overlays onto a local display. For mirroring with nvoverlaysink, you would use tee in gstreamer pipeline and have each nvoverlaysink setting its display-id (such as 0,1).
